Stopping all fediverse activities. Good bye. Absolutely stupid indisriminate bans by mods on various instances make it clear to me lemmy and fediverse does not want content.
if I ever get back to fediverse It would be on my own instance as its clear to me nothing short of that is going to work.

Yeah, go ahead and tell your boss to actually adjust your hours because a table stiffed and watch your hours magically get cut. The math is easy, take your $2.13 and don't complain or you'll get the back tables by the kitchen and then only get scheduled for 20 hours next week.

Mmmhm. So when you file your taxes, this is checked for. It's fairly easy to confirm compliance from the taxes info your boss files + the tips you're 100% extremely dutifully reporting, especially if you do something like automatic withholding (as I understand it a colossal pain for a tipped position unless you're in one of the many states that has passed rules to make the process less absurd). This is why it's important to report things like tips, because it's the #1 way bosses like that are caught.

Of course the economic reality discourages people from actually doing that, and thus we carve out yet more niche to stack exploitation in.
